It’s my favorite day of the week… TUTORIAL TUESDAY!!!!! Make sure you read ALLLLL the directions. Here’s the step-by-step for this week’s Vintage Valentine look:
_
1) place hair in a high ponytail, leaving out the area where your bangs would be
2) separate bang area into three subsections
3) tease each subsection at the base near the scalp
4) roll each subsection to create a “victory roll” and secure with bobby pins (make sure to hide the pins!)
5) place ponytail into a loop bun (similar to how most girls would to go work out or wash their face)
6) pin down the bun however you’d like, making sure the hair looks full
7) take bandana or head tie and place it at the base of the back of your head
8) bring sides of the bandana/ head tie up to the front and tie in a knot
9) make any adjustments you need and you’re finished! by heidimariegarrett http://instagr.am/p/VoqLaRmVB8/

Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition.

The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous.

Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it’s my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V.

vazerick:

Keanu Reeves!

But i don’t suspect, i’m sure!

Look at this, in first place:

Now, look at this:

That’s “Paul Mounet”, a french actor, who “died” in 1922.

His body never was found.

Then, look at this:

An unknown man, painted in 1530 by Parmigianino.

Compare they:

Just to finish:

That’s Keanu Reeves, traveling through time in a phone box.

Do i need to say ANYTHING else?

DIY Tutorial: 10 Minute Floral Crown

Hi guys!

A really quick DIY to get you all thinking about SUMMER 2013!

(Already saving…)

I absolutely love the wearability of these headpieces but wanted to make something that stands out so I opted for a “flower crown” rather than “garland”.

SOME INSPIRATION:

Agnes Wonke-Toth, Didit Hediprasetyo and of course, my queen - Lana del Rey.

MATERIALS:

Hairband preferably a similar colour to your hair

Synthetic flowers I was able to find quite a large selection at my local “bits ‘n bobs” shop - £1 per bouquet. There are quite a few eBay sellers who sell synthetic flowers at wholesale prices.

Sharp scissors / craft knife

Needle and thread preferably a similar colour to the flowers

DIRECTIONS:

1. Separate the heads of the flowers from the stems

N.B The heads of a lot of synthetic flowers are wired with metal rods and cupped with plastic for support. I decided to cut these parts out but if you feel you can sew around them, definitely go for it!

Alternatively, you could cut the plastic down as much as possible before you start sewing - I had to work for a little bit longer to make sure that the flowers kept their shape and didn’t fall flat without their support.

2. Sew

I don’t want to say too much here because honestly, I’m not a sewer…

…at all

As long as your thread is a similar colour to the flowers, you can pretty much be as messy as you want!

*If you’re anything like me, you might also want to explore the glue gun option!

3. TADAHHHHH!

Yes! This tutorial really only has 2 steps!

First time took me under 15 minutes! And I’m really happy with the way it turned out…

…if I do say so myself!
